Subject: Side Stitches I have increased my running frequency & volume over the last 8 weeks and within the last week or so I have developed side stitches every time I run. I have never had this problem before. I have to really focus on taking big breaths to make them go away.
Does this have anything to do with core fatigue? Or is it just a bad breathing rhythm?
To give you some background - I have consistently ran (although not big miles ) over the last year since IMAZ. I really picked up the frequency around Thanksgiving running 5-6 days a week and increasing weekly mileage from 18 miles (Thanksgiving week ) to 35 miles (last week ). Any thoughts? |
